Leaving the tree in its pot

Question:

Hi, My tree has arrived. I was planning to leave the tree in the pot, and re-pot it next year, as I don’t have a definite planting area yet. Is that OK? Katie

Asked by: Katie 12-Dec-2024

Answer:

Hi Katie As it is now December, if you mean you will plant the tree out in January or February then that is fine. If you mean next autumn then you will need to transfer the tree to a larger temporary container now. 

 In either case the tree should not be disturbed between February - October, so by the end of February it should either be in the ground or in the larger container.
